If I piss my pants, I might as well shit my pants.

To a certain extent, yes.

I used to do a dirty job. I spent most days trying hard to minimize the amount of grime I got on my hands. Some days it got past the wrist, despite my best efforts, and at that point, I would just give up and dive in.

More like, if my pants are being made by slave labor no matter what, might as well spend less on them. I don't shop at SHEIN, but if you tell someone there's no difference between shopping at a department store and SHEIN, they might as well save a few bucks by shopping at SHEIN. Admittedly, I don't know that there is a difference, and I only clothes shop where I do for practical reasons, not ethical ones. If I knew I could get the same quality for a quarter of the price and I had no reason to think it translated to worse working conditions, I would do so.
